i refinished the trafficator yesterday. i will probably add a few more polishes and maybe a waxing in the next week. i still have not painted the hub of the steering wneel. i reduced the diameter to 13.5 inches and had it recovered in black non-glossy leather. i was pleased with the result of the refinish using the black dye and shoe polish method suggested in previous threads. i also recovered the dash and am in the process of installing speedhut gauges and a new aftermarket wiring harness. you cerainly do not want to have to buy the trafficator unit for a non adjustable steering wheel....1100 dollars at moss! i might still do a finish shine...not sure if i want it too shiny!

Wow, that came out really nice. Oddly, my BN2 has this exact (100-6) trafficator in it so this is real inspiration. Thanks for posting the follow up photos.
